Weekend Projects
Ernie Miller Topeka
>Man I need a rest! it's been a long week. I am going to be working on the wifes never ending project. but I also hope to get a little free time to work O a new plane project. I started last night. I am making an out fill hand scraper. I picked up an 81 hand plane with a broken handle and am making a knob and tote to fit it on. I figure I can sell the rose wood sole and come out ahead on this deal. I grabed a billet of mystery wood out of the shop when I picked it up I thought it was Mahogany after cutting it I thought it looked like cherry but after carving on it I don't know that stuff is hard! I will have to turn a bigger mallet or somthing the 40 &50 rasps just skip acrost it. any way this will be a fun project. I also ned to make some more drawer rails for the work bench it is getting closer to being finished. Every one have a safe and Rocking good weekend!! And all of you going up to 5 Barns drive safe!
